I think cod, flounder, haddock, and halibut are about fished out in the North Atlantic too. Maybe even sardines. https://www.islandinstitute.org/working-waterfront/27423/ 'Maine' sardines come from Latvia. I visited a sardine factory in the '70s. The whole chain was fascinating. The fish were caught in weirs. The boats would vacuum them up with chutes that were lined with hardware cloth that mostly descaled them. The scales were sold to make pearlescent buttons. Once delivered, the fish were dumped on an under/over conveyor. Women sitting at tables along the line would scoop them up, cut them to fit the cans with kitchen shears, and stack the filled cans. The heads and anthing else they trimmed went back onto the other conveyor belt. That was sold back to the lobstermen as gurry. Everything but the squeal, indeed.
